I'm sorry everyone...


Hey guys,

It's been such a long time and I'm sorry for that.  I really have no excuse other than that I was living my life and had no time.  It's been a crazy couple of months in which I turned 18, two new girls moved in with me, I applied to uni, went to Cambodia, Vietnam and Thailand, saw Bastille and 5SOS live, went to Queensland, had one of my photographs selected to be in a professional exhibition with other artists, spoke at a fundraising dinner and so many other things that I can't possibly remember.  

I was just thinking about my friend who is entering her last week of school tomorrow and how I was in her shoes last year.  All the stress from school work, the anticipation that it's almost over and just pure happiness that I will be starting a new chapter of my life soon.  So I'm so happy and excited for all the grade 12s this year and how excited they must be.  

I'm also a bit sad because potentially I only have seven weeks left here in Geelong.  I've made so many new friends and gained so much experience and knowledge that I will always be grateful for.  I've also learnt so much about myself and the stuff that actually interests me.  I now know that I want to surround myself with art for the rest of my life and that's why I've decided to pursue art at university next year.  I want to make a career out of something that I love so much. 

Writing this all now and made me realise how much I actually missed this.  I can't believe that it's taken me this long to get back to it.  The main reason behind why I stopped updating my blog was because I thought that no one actually read it.  Then I realised that, you don't always have to have an audience for everything you do.  Writing all this straight from my head helps me clear my mind and organise my thoughts.  I've truly missed this blog.

As my year is coming to a close, I am going to keep updating (I promise!), even if life gets a big hectic I will still find time to write.  

Guys..... I got new housemates!
I was really nervous before the two girls showed up but now it feels like I've known them for a long time.  We've been having so much fun together and trying new things.  It's been great having people the same age as me around and being able to do things together.  It's going to be so awesome at the end of January because the girls are coming to Tasmania to visit while I'm at home!! I'm going to be able to show them around and do stuff with them before I head off to uni.  

I really have to be doing my res college application now so...

Byyyyyeeee! 

P.S. there will be photos soon to show what I've been up to recently :)
